The return is only tracked by USPS until arrival at Nashville. There the individual phone boxes are placed into a large container for the company performing the assessment for Google. No further tracking is available after that. Right now it seems to be running about 1-2 weeks from arrival in...

Go to Application Manager. You'll have to check one by one each app whether its data can be stored on the external card: Click Storage. If you see the words "internal storage" you can change it to external. Otherwise you can't. The trick here is that when the change box comes up, depending on...

Turning off Smart Stay in settings made a big difference in battery life for me. Posted via the Android Central App

Try turning off Smart Stay in display settings. That improved charge duration for me, as far as i can tell. Posted via the Android Central App

Yes. Get the giftcard number and card code from the S pay app. You enter that on the Best Buy site at checkout. Posted via the Android Central App

True. I tried everything to get rid of VVM with no success. Finally called VZW and got connected to tech support. They were able to block VVM and restore basic VM. This is a stupid and time wasting way to have to do this and I'm pissed that Verizon is forcing VVM down S7 users throats. But at...

Just installed here in Massachusetts. Most significant change in this update, if you're interested in this feature, is that Isis Mobile Wallet is now activated for the Verizon HTC One. Be sure you have a new secure SIM card--can be obtained and installed free at any VZW store. Turn on NFC and...

You have to time the three-button tap pretty simultaneously, but can get away with several tries until it works. When you see the tiny bright yellow SD card error message scrolling down on a black screen background, you know you're good to go. If you're over 45, be sure you have your reading...

Power off phone (be sure to turn off fast reboot in settings first). Boot into recovery by holding volume-down key and then holding power key until boot menu appears. Volume down to RECOVERY and tap power to select. HTC logo appears followed by a blank, dim screen. Wait about 30 seconds for red...
